Hendo at 205 will take Franklin out. He's too damn tough for Franklin and he always has the option of taking Rich down at will.
After coaching a season of TUF, then fights Bisping my God will he abuse him.
I watched him fight Leben and yes he has been winning (although Hamill definitely won that fight) but i'm sorry Hendo is on a totally different level as far as talent, experience, and toughness...
IMO
I disagree. Over 3 rounds at 185 Bisping could certainly snatch a unanimous decision.
Hendo is going to work him soooo bad. I can't wait.
First off, the winner of this fight walks right thru Bisping.
Hendo vs Franklin will be a war, I cant wait to see this one, I only wish it was a 5 rounder. Sorry CRE, but if this fight goes to the ground, Hendo will be on top, and there is no way Franklin will sub him from the bottom. I think Hendo takes this by tko rd3, the only way Franklin wins this is by decision.
hendo franklin could look alot like hammil franklin, rich looks better all the time with matt hume in his corner
undisputed1972 - I disagree. Over 3 rounds at 185 Bisping could certainly snatch a unanimous decision.
decision over dan? STFU KKM.. Bisping isn't THAT good at getting undeserved decisions yet.
lol
I don't see how some people think that Dan at this point in his career will be sub'd by Rich. Dan was on bottom underneath Palharus and din't get sub'd. Dan's only been sub'd a few times but to world class BJJ guys which Rich is not.
Dan's too tough for Rich to get in a stand up war with. Dan throws haymakers no doubt but in the clinch he is nasty and he will take a few to give a few and not many can stand in there and take many of his shots.
Dan then has his wrestling in his pocket against Rich. From the clinch Dan took Quinton down no problem and Anderson down no problem.
not cutting weight at 205 he may be a little shorter and lighter but not by much and should be gorilla strong.
I'm going to say 3 rd tko over Rich then obviously will coach the show and absolutely steamroll Bisping..
ok you old veteran you... i've been wathcing this sport longer than you even knew it was around...
He needs to greatly increase his work rate. Same point I guess.
Either of these guys could take him out. But Hendo has just looked too inconsistant lately. Rich now may have gotton beat, but it was Silva and it's pretty obivious that Silva is not only on another level but that he's also a bad match-up for Rich style wise. Franklin is no joke, and he knows how to prepare. If he gets beat it's not because he didn't train hard enough, or picked the wrong gameplan. He just gets beat, pure and simple. And Bisping is not at the level to do that.
johhny english - lololol
i've been following it for eleven years ... im sure you will say you was at the first ufc in '93 or something ...
bispin is the best mma'er in the world ... after fedor of course ....
Whatever you are smoking, it is some serious shit. The best besides Fedor. Seriously mate, he isn't even the top 25!
franklin is no joke is right. a lot of people here like to disrespect rich, i guess because he was one the supposedly protected fighters in the ufc back then, and wasn't brazilian or japanese. i am already looking for franklin/hendo fight because it's going to be a war. you would have to be seriously retarded to think it will be easy for either one.
